"Suspense at a breakneck pace. Delaine demonstrates her talents as a narrator through realistic portrayals of a dizzying cast of male and female characters, both criminals and cops." — AudioFile Magazine
When she's called to the murder scene, the last thing San Francisco Homicide detective Valerie Hart is expecting is for Katherine Glass to walk back into her life. Six years earlier, revulsion and fascination had gripped the nation in equal measure, as beautiful, intelligent, charming—and utterly evil—Katherine Glass had been convicted on six counts of Murder One. But the freshly-mutilated corpse in the ground-floor apartment bears all the hallmarks of Katherine's victims. And then there's the note, with its chilling implications. Addressed to Valerie.
To stop the slaughter, Valerie has no choice. She must ask Katherine Glass to help her decipher the killer's twisted message. But that means re-entering the pitch-black labyrinth that is Katherine's mind, and this time Valerie isn't so sure which one of them will survive.

      This is the second audiobook in the Valerie Hart series, but new listeners are quickly brought up to speed. Valerie, a homicide detective, is called to the scene of a murder that bears all the hallmarks of a killer she got sent to prison six years earlier. Christina Delaine narrates this complicated story of violence, sex, and suspense at a breakneck pace. Delaine demonstrates her talents as a narrator through realistic portrayals of a dizzying cast of male and female characters, both criminals and cops. Listeners may want to be careful when and where they listen as much of this audiobook includes graphic descriptions of crime and sexual encounters. Fans may compare this well-told thriller to SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, with women in all the major roles. M.R. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine

      Black’s riveting follow-up to 2015’s The Killing Lessons puts a fresh spin on the familiar scenario of a cop drawn into a game of cat and mouse by an imprisoned serial killer. San Francisco homicide detective Valerie Hart is called in to investigate a murder when a note addressed to Valerie is found taped to the victim’s body. Years earlier, Valerie put beautiful and brilliant Katherine Glass (“the most hated woman in America”) behind bars for a series of brutal videotaped murders. Now, Katherine’s still-at-large partner in crime demands that she be released, or the killings will continue. He leaves a series of elaborate clues that only Katherine can decipher, giving Valerie no choice but to engage with the alluring killer. Black (a pseudonym for writer Glen Duncan) explores themes of love and trust, and doesn’t shy away from Valerie’s complex emotional world. Sharp plotting and snappy dialogue propel the action to an exciting conclusion, though readers should be prepared for graphic violence, especially early on. 75,000 announced first printing. Agent: Jane Gelfman, Gelfman Schneider Literary Agency.
